Also has an intemperate character to her, like Creon. Antigone's motives are "right", but not necessarily correct is the manner she pursues her position. Teiresias never says she is correct, and don't forget that Creon's arguments for the state are quoted in other ancient Greek contexts as models to be upheld.

Sorry about the buzzing sound, it goes away about halfway thru the play. click on link below to playlist of all 11 parts of this "Antigone": youtube.com John Churton Collins: Nothing can illustrate more strikingly the real complexity which underlies and is involved in the apparent simplicity of the art of Sophocles than the ethics of this drama. The central purpose is obviously the relation of the law which has its sanction in political authority and the law which has its sanction in the private conscience, the relation of the obligations imposed on human beings as citizens and members of the state, and the obligations imposed on them in the home and as members of families. And both these laws presenting themselves in their most crucial form are in direct collision. Creon was perfectly justified in issuing the edict which deprived Polyneices of his funeral rites. The young man had fallen in the act of committing the most heinous crime of which a citizen could be guilty, and Creon, as the responsible head of the state, very naturally supposed that exemplary punishment was the culprit's rightful due. The decree issued with its annexed penalty became law, and as the law it was incumbent on every citizen to obey it. In the case of Antigone the other law presents itself at the same crucial point. No private obligation was more sacred and more imperative in the eyes of the Greeks than the duty she undertook, and which, as the last of her race, Ismene excepted, she could .... + Informações

Sorry about the buzzing sound, most of it goes away soon. click on link below to playlist of all 11 parts of this "Antigone": youtube.com John Churton Collins: Antigone, it must be remembered, belonged to a doomed family, and her conduct is regarded throughout by the Chorus as an act of infatuation urged on her by the curse resting on that family: it is defended by no one except her lover Haemon. She makes no attempt to conciliate Creon, but maintains throughout a most defiant attitude, glorying alike in her deed and in its penalty. It is indeed difficult to see how Creon, without stultifying his position and his authority, could have acted otherwise than he did. Antigone not merely braves but courts death. That the Gods did not approve of Creon's treatment of Polyneices may be pleaded in justification of Antigone's act, but this hardly affects the question of her fate. In her case as well as in Creon's, it was not so much what they did, as the temper in which what they did was done, that brought ruin on them. Cast: Juliet Stevenson ... Antigone Gwen Taylor ...

Juliet Stevenson plays Antigone. click on link below to playlist of all 11 parts of this "Antigone": youtube.com John Churton Collins: But if Creon is punished, Antigone is punished also. Does she deserve her fate ? Are we to understand that the poet in his moral does not design to represent that the law which she vindicates should supersede the law which Creon vindicates? A careful study of the play will surely show that he leaves the question practically unanswered, or at all events that what can be urged on either side is so nicely balanced that it is difficult to say on which side the scale inclines. It is important to remember that if a poet is a moralist and a teacher he is primarily an artist. Antigone is a noble and pathetic creation, and the poet has lavished on her all that can impress and move us. Of this effect he has been more studious than of the solution of any moral problem.

They are made human by the distinct and continuous portrayal of their chief feelings, impulses and motives. Their ideality is preserved chiefly in two ways; first, the poet avoids too minute a moral analysis, and so each character while its main tendencies are exhibited still remains generic, a type rather than a portrait; secondly, and this is of higher moment, the persons of the drama are ever under the directly manifested, immediately felt control of the gods and of fate.. + Informações

from the play by Sophocles Irene Papas ... Antigone Manos Katrakis ... Creon Director: Yorgos Javellas (George Tzavellas) in Greek with English subtitles Much of Antigone's humanity comes thru in this scene, though more by Papas' acting than the words. Antigone clearly does want to live, and laments her impending death. Missing from this filmed except are the famous (or infamous, around line 1000) comments where she provides rather unconvincing reasons for her actions, and furthur confesses that she would not do all this over the body of a husband or son--repudiating her earlier stance. Some scholars have argued that this passage isn't authentic, but their reasons are rather subjective, and no less an authority than Aristotle quoted them and gave no hint that they may be spurious. In any case, her actions and words are those of a young woman, filled the certainty and righteousness of youth (Oscar Wilde "I am not young enough to know everything") who, moreover, has not experienced a husband or a child. Antigone is closer to her dead family than anyone living anyway. She is in a rather disraught state now, but like any fine Greek, has to find reasons. But her "reasons" were always more emotional, or to be more exact, pre-rational, anyway. In her cross-examination by Creon (lines 550-570 or so), he zeros in quite effectively on her "reasonings" and she has to retreat into dogma. Remember that at no time does Tiresias say her stance is correct, and the proper burial of her .... + Informações
